REDUCES STRESS

Journaling can help process and overcome stress. In one study, students who journaled about their test anxiety before the exam outperformed those who only wrote about the test content.

RELIEF IN TOUGH TIMES

People who spent 15 minutes twice a week journaling about a stressful event later reported feeling less anxious and depressed, especially if they were struggling before.

IMPROVES HEALTH

Journaling keeps you healthy! Patients living with chronic health conditions saw physical improvements after writing consistently about stressful or negative experiences.

IMPROVES MEMORY

Writing about your thoughts and emotions frees up space in your memory and improves its function at the same time.

EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING

Repeated journaling increases emotional intelligence, helping you to process thoughts and feelings in a healthier way.
